An air-to-air heat pump takes heat from the outside air and releases it indoors as warm air — the same equipment as reverse-cycle air conditioning, sized and set up for heating.
Where we work around Peebles
In a town like Peebles, a single wall unit for a shop or a cassette for a surgery makes a real difference in summer. Edinburgh is about 34 km away.
That includes premises in EH45 and the surrounding districts. We also cover Penicuik, Galashiels and Bonnyrigg, all within easy reach of Peebles. In Peebles we work with offices, shops and hospitality premises, from a single room to a whole floor; each job starts with a heat load check rather than a guess from the floor area.
Included as standard
- Heat loss and heat gain assessment
- Units selected for low-temperature heating output
- Outdoor units positioned for air flow and defrost drainage
- Controls with schedules and set-back temperatures
- Commissioning and handover

From enquiry to handover in Peebles
Heat loss survey
We assess fabric, glazing and ventilation to size for winter as well as summer.
Design
Units are chosen for their heating output at low outdoor temperatures, not just their cooling rating.
Install
Outdoor units go where defrost water can drain safely and air flow is not restricted. In Peebles we agree timings around your opening hours.
Set controls
Schedules and set-backs are configured so the system heats efficiently.
Points to plan for in Peebles
Building fabric
Draughty or poorly insulated premises need more heating capacity; simple draught-proofing can reduce the size needed.
Leased premises
If your Peebles premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Air direction
Warm air rises, so units are set to direct air down when heating.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Who we work with in Peebles
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
- Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
Two rules matter for most businesses in Scotland: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for systems of 12 kW or more.

Does it work in freezing weather?

Often not, but in some buildings a small back-up for the coldest days is sensible. We advise at survey.
